Oh, do keep up.
Honestly, LGBT is so last year.
According to the Community Information Centre of Ottawa, Canada, we're up to LGBTTQ+,
now.
I love that +...I don't know if it's a sign of open-mindedness, irritation, or despair.
Anyway, LGBTTQ+ stands for lesbian, gay, bisexual,
transgender, transsexual, two-spirited,
intersex, queer and questioning.
intersex, queer and questioning.
It makes me realise that I have rather a lot of questioning to do, myself.
Oh, but I am grateful for that +. I'm hoping it'll keep me up to date for a few months, at least.
Word To Use Today: plus. This word comes from the Latin word meaning more, or in greater
number. The theory is that it comes from the Proto-European pele, which might have meant to
fill.
